<p>If you’re a fan of the <a href="http://ipadinsight.com/ipad-2/some-thoughts-on-the-ipad-2-smart-cover/">Apple Smart Cover for the iPad 2</a>, or cases that support the smart cover’s automatic sleep/wake function, then you may be interested in one of two new cases on offer from Marware. </p>
<p>The <strong>Marware MicroShell Folio iPad 2 Case</strong> is a replacement for the smart cover that offers a very similar approach to the front cover but in a full case that also provides protection for the back of the iPad. </p>
<p>The <strong>Marware MicroShell iPad 2 Case</strong> is a shell for the back of the iPad 2 only, intended to work in tandem with the Apple smart cover. </p>
<p>Both of them look good, and I’ve had nothing but positive results with Marware cases for both the original iPad and the iPad 2 – see my recent reviews of their <a href="http://ipadinsight.com/ipad-accessories/ipad-cases/review-marware-c-e-o-hybrid-ipad-2-case/">C.E.O. Hybrid iPad 2 Case</a> and <a href="http://ipadinsight.com/ipad-accessories/ipad-cases/review-marware-eco-flip-ipad-2-case/">Eco-Flip iPad 2 Case</a> for my thoughts on two of the better iPad 2 cases I’ve seen thus far. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><a href="http://ipadinsight.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/OtterboxiPad2DefenderSeries.jpg" rel="lightbox[8307]" title="OtterboxiPad2DefenderSeries"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="OtterboxiPad2DefenderSeries" border="0" alt="OtterboxiPad2DefenderSeries" src="http://ipadinsight.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/OtterboxiPad2DefenderSeries_thumb.jpg" width="400" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>If you’re in need of real rugged protection for your <a href="http://ipadinsight.com/tag/ipad-2">iPad 2</a>, then you should be happy to hear that the <strong>Otterbox iPad 2 Defender Series</strong> case is now available. Otterbox are the masters when it comes to above and beyond, hard as nails protection for iOS (and many other mobile) devices. </p>
<p>The new iPad 2 Defender Series is part of their most rugged line of cases, that are built to withstand ‘just about any environment’. It’s got a shock-absorbing silicone skin and an inner polycarbonate shell with a foam interior that provides scratch protection for the back of the iPad 2. It allows for full access to all the iPad’s functionality while in the case, and has a clip-on cover for the iPad screen that doubles up as fold-out stand. It’s also 20% lighter than the version for the original iPad – which of course goes well with the lighter, thinner iPad 2 itself. </p>
<p>The case offers protection against bumps, shocks, drops, and ‘dust intrusion’; it is not waterproof and does not protect against liquid damage. </p>
<p>I’ve used an Otterbox Defender with my iPhone 4. I found it surprisingly light and also found it surprisingly easy to use the iPhone just like normal while still having such heavy-duty protection. While my iPhone may come along when we’re out on a beach or at the lake, I don’t ever expose my iPad to any higher risk environments – so the Defender Series is not on my list of iPad 2 cases to get. </p>
<p>For those of you who use your iPad 2 in rough work (or play) environments,this is likely to be a very good case option for you to look at. They go for $89.95 and you can check out all the details and place orders at the <a href="http://www.otterbox.com/iPad-2-Defender-Series-Case/APL2-IPAD2-D9-E4OTR_A,default,pd.html">Otterbox page for the iPad 2 Defender Series</a>.</p>

<p>I spent my first few weeks with the <a href="http://ipadinsight.com/tag/ipad-2">iPad 2</a> using only the <a href="http://ipadinsight.com/ipad-2/some-thoughts-on-the-ipad-2-smart-cover/">Apple Smart Cover</a> and screen protectors on front and back. Initially there was a major lack of third party cases for the iPad 2 – in Apple and other retail stores and even online. Over the last few weeks this situation has improved a great deal and I’ve found a number of promising iPad 2 cases online. </p>
<p>The Mivizu Sense iPad 2 Leather Case is one of those. I <a href="http://ipadinsight.com/tag/ipad-2">had never heard of Mivizu before until a reader mentioned this case</a> and it looked interesting enough to try out. Honestly, I had low expectations with such an unknown name. Well, I’ve been using this unknown darkhorse of a case for a couple weeks now and I have been very pleasantly surprised at how much I like it.</p>

<p>TUAW’s <a href="http://www.tuaw.com/2011/05/07/wrap-your-ipad-in-ferrari-leather/">mention of these</a> <strong>Ferrari iPad cases</strong> caught my eye this morning. They are made of genuine black leather and are modeled on Ferrari car interiors. </p>
<p>The red interior is another Ferrari signature, as is the prancing horse logo on the front of the case. These are only for the original iPad as far as I can tell. </p>
<p>Though these are hardly at the low end of iPad case pricing, their $94 price tag is relatively inexpensive compared to a lot of iPad cases from luxury vendors. In fact, you could buy over 300 of these cases for all your close iPad friends before you match the price of the Ferrari Masterpiece brooch listed on the same page as this case ($29,791). </p>
<p>For more details or to place an order for the Ferrari iPad case go here: <a title="http://store.ferrari.com/en/accessories/leather-and-bags/ipad-cases/leather-ipad-case-italy-collection.html#" href="http://store.ferrari.com/en/accessories/leather-and-bags/ipad-cases/leather-ipad-case-italy-collection.html">http://store.ferrari.com/en/accessories/leather-and-bags/ipad-cases/leather-ipad-case-italy-collection.html#</a></p>

<p>A little over a week ago I did a <a href="http://ipadinsight.com/ipad-accessories/ipad-cases/review-yoobao-executive-leather-case-for-ipad-2-with-smart-cover-tech">review of the Yoobao Executive Leather iPad 2 Case</a>. It was a pretty scathing review as the case was a major disappointment in three main areas:</p>
<p>&#8211; It smelled terrible, even my hands reeked of a strong chemical smell after handling it for just a short time.</p>
<p>&#8211; The cutouts for the iPad 2’s ports and buttons were all done extremely badly – making it difficult to use the iPad 2 while in the case.</p>
<p>&#8211; This case is listed as having support for the iPad 2 smart cover tech, so it can automatically sleep/wake the device. This feature did not work properly at all: The iPad 2 was almost constantly sleeping and waking when in this case. The merest touch on the case – even on the back of the case! – has the iPad 2 waking up or going to sleep.</p>
<p>Shortly after posting my review I was contacted by someone from Xeniti, the resellers of the case. He said that the case I received was one of one only a dozen or so cases out of thousands shipped that had issues like I had seen, and he wanted to send me a replacement case to show me that these are generally better quality cases than the one I received. </p>
<p>Of course I agreed to get a replacement and give it a look. I received the replacement case this morning and I’ve had a chance to give it a look and a tryout with my iPad 2. Sadly, the results are not that much better than with the first unit.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><a href="http://ipadinsight.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/MivizuSenseforiPad2.jpg" rel="lightbox[7948]" title="MivizuSenseforiPad2"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="MivizuSenseforiPad2" border="0" alt="MivizuSenseforiPad2" src="http://ipadinsight.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/MivizuSenseforiPad2_thumb.jpg" width="342" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>I should start here by admitting that until reader Joanne mentioned them in a comment on a post about another case, I had never heard of Mivizu at all. She mentioned this <strong>Mivizu Sense iPad 2 Leather Case</strong>,&#160; and I went and took a look at the <a href="http://www.mivizu.com/Gray_Leather_Mivizu_Sense_iPad_2_Case_p/cipd2mvzsmrtgy.htm">web page for it</a>. </p>
<p>The case offers smart cover tech support (for the automatic sleep/wake function for the iPad 2). Honestly the case didn’t excite me much and it was from an unknown (to me at least) company – but it was attractively priced and seemed worth a look, so I ordered one. </p>
<p>And boy am I glad I did! I just got the Mivizu Sense a couple days ago but I am very pleasantly surprised at a what a good case this is. I love its light shade of gray, its leather feels ultra-soft and padded and just very nice to touch and hold. The smart cover sleep/wake function works well and the case is a pleasure to use so far. </p>
<p>I had low expectations for an unknown name and a $40 iPad 2 case – so far this case has far exceeded them, and really looks great. I’ll do a review when I’ve spent more time with the case, but it’s safe to say first impressions are very positive.</p>

<p>The <strong>Marware C.E.O. Hybrid iPad 2 Case</strong> seems to have just about everything going for it in terms of what I’m looking for in an <a href="http://ipadinsight.com/tag/ipad-2">iPad 2</a> case. It promises all-round protection, smart cover tech support (for automatic sleep/wake of the iPad 2), and is attractive looking. </p>
<p>It’s the second Marware iPad2 case I ordered – it would have been first if I would’ve realized sooner that it offered the smart cover tech. I’ve been using the CEO Hybrid (I hope you’ll forgive me for rendering it without the periods between letters in the rest of this post) on my iPad 2 constantly for about a week now and it’s certainly an impressive case.</p>

<p>In these first few weeks since the <a href="http://ipadinsight.com/tag/ipad-2">iPad 2</a> launched it has been relatively hard to track down good cases for the new iPad. Apple stores are not carrying any 3rd party cases at all yet, and other retail outlets (AT&amp;T, Verizon, Best Buy, Target et al) have very slim pickings or none at all, at least here in Austin.</p>
<p>Looking to established online accessory vendors, like Marware and others, provides some options. The <strong>Marware Eco-Flip iPad 2 Case</strong> is actually the very first iPad 2 case I ordered. I’ve had the case for a couple weeks now and used it quite a lot, so it’s about time to share a quick review of it. Hit the jump for my review and a few photos of the case in action with my iPad Dos …</p>

<p>Ever since I discovered <a href="http://justanotheripadblog.com/ipad-accessories/some-thoughts-on-the-ipad-2-smart-cover/">how much I like the Apple Smart Cover for the iPad 2</a>, but also how much I dislike its lack of full protection and inability to play nicely when folded back in use, I’ve been searching for a case that offers the best of both worlds. An iPad 2 case that offers full protection and also full support for smart cover features.</p>
<p>One of the first I spotted that claimed to fit the bill is the <strong>Yoobao Executive Leather Case for iPad 2</strong>. At $39.95 – ordering via <a href="http://www.xengadget.com/products/187-yoobao-executive-genuine-leather-case-for-apple-ipad-2.aspx">XenGadget</a> – it’s nearly 50% off the price of the Apple Smart Cover for iPad 2. So I ordered one, and yesterday it arrived.</p>
<p>The short story here is this case will never again be going on my iPad 2. It’s back in its box and will either be returned to the vendor or just thrown away. For details on why, hit the jump …</p>

<p>Hard Candy have announced a new line of white cases for the <a href="http://justanotheripadblog.com/tag/ipad-2">iPad 2</a>. There’s a white convertible case, a white bubble sleeve style case, and the one shown above – the iPad 2 Street Skin. They’ve even got a white iPad stylus on offer. </p>
<p>The Street Skin looks like it offers pretty complete protection, and also has a different approach to the iPad 2’s built-in magnets:</p>
<ul>
<ul>
<li>Form-fitting TPU rubber for better protection, less stretching, and easier cleaning than silicone </li>
<li>Magnetic integrated screen enclosure that conveniently attaches to the back of your case while not in use </li>
<li>Full access to all audio outputs, dock connectors, Multi-Touch display and controls </li>
<li>Specifically designed for the Apple iPad 2</li>
</ul>
</ul>
<p>I could see this one having some appeal, especially for those who have a white iPad 2. The Street Skin goes $39.95 and is available for pre-order now. It’s expected to ship on May 1st. </p>
<p>For more details on the full Hard Candy range for iPad 2 and to place orders, visit their site here:</p>

<p>I finally got my first 3rd party case for the iPad 2 today. The <strong>Marware EcoFlip for iPad 2</strong> was delivered this morning.&#160; Up to now I’ve been using only the <a href="http://justanotheripadblog.com/ipad-accessories/some-thoughts-on-the-ipad-2-smart-cover/">Apple Smart Cover for iPad 2</a> and <a href="http://justanotheripadblog.com/ipad-accessories/got-my-ipad-2-screen-protectors-yesterday/">Ghost Armor screen protectors</a> / covers for front and back of the iPad 2. Local Apple and other retail stores here in Austin have had very slim pickings thus far for iPad 2 cases. Apple Stores offer none at all aside from the smart cover and between AT&amp;T, Verizon, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart I’ve found none that appeal at all.</p>
<p>I’ve also seen very few cases that I like online that are actually shipping immediately. This is one of two Marware cases for iPad 2 that I’ve ordered, and both are shipping far later than originally expected. </p>

<p>That’s the <strong>Big Grips Frame</strong> and <strong>Big Grips Stand</strong> for the iPad shown above. These are aimed at households where an iPad or iPads get a lot of use by kids – and especially for those with younger kids I imagine. </p>
<p>I haven’t tried these out – and my daughter is a very grown-up 8 now, so I’m not sure I have any need to – but these look like quite a good idea to me. Here’s a little of the description of the frame / case:</p>
<blockquote><p>Constructed of durable, lightweight foam, Big Grips Frame is a big, soft protective case for iPad that is easy to grab, comfortable to hold and very grip-able. Finally, parents can relax when the kids grab the iPad!</p>
<p>&quot;We set out to create a case that not only protects the iPad, but also brings a smile to your face,&quot; said Kirk Mills, founder and President of KEM Ventures, Inc. &quot;Judging by the kids we&#8217;ve seen using Big Grips Frame, I think we succeeded. For parents, it&#8217;s peace of mind. Big Grips Frame just feels good, like there&#8217;s nothing to worry about &#8211; that&#8217;s how we came up with the motto &#8216;Grab More. Worry less.&#8217;&quot;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><a href="http://justanotheripadblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/AppleSmartCoverforiPad2.jpg" rel="lightbox[7102]" title="Apple Smart Cover for iPad 2"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Apple Smart Cover for iPad 2" border="0" alt="Apple Smart Cover for iPad 2" src="http://justanotheripadblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/AppleSmartCoverforiPad2_thumb.jpg" width="440" height="222" /></a></p>
<p>Here’s something that doesn’t sound helpful for all of us who are waiting to see more third party <a href="http://justanotheripadblog.com/tag/ipad-2">iPad 2</a> cases that use the smart cover technology to connect via magnets with the iPad 2 and automatically sleep / wake the device. Despite the fact that their own heavily promoted Smart Cover for the iPad 2 is all about magnets, Apple’s own ‘<strong><a href="http://developer.apple.com/resources/cases/Case_Design_Guidelines_R2.pdf">Case Design Guidelines for Apple Devices</a></strong>’ document advises against the use of magnets. </p>
<p>Here’s the relevant section on this:</p>
<blockquote><p>Magnetic Interference</p>
<p>Case designs for Apple devices should avoid the use of magnets (for example, as closure devices) and magnetic materials. Cases with parts made of any metal should be tested to verify that they do not affect an Apple device’s built-in magnetic compass, if any.</p>
<p>Besides their effect on a built-in magnetic compass, magnets in cases can affect other sensors and electronic components. Cases should not include magnets unless there is no other practical design solution and only if they do not affect the operation of the Apple device in any way.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>So presumably Apple is confident that their own Smart Covers have been tested thoroughly enough and that they do not have any adverse effects on the operation of the built-in compass or anything else on the iPad 2. I’ve already seen <a href="http://justanotheripadblog.com/ipad-accessories/first-couple-3rd-party-smart-cover-cases-for-ipad-2-spotted/">a couple of third party cases that use the smart cover tech</a>, and I’m still hoping to see more – but seeing Apple’s guidelines on this now gives me a little doubt about whether these are going to be 100% ‘safe’ to use. I wonder what some of the leading case manufacturers feel about these guidelines.</p>
<p>What do you all think? Are you interested in using third party case with smart cover tech and magnets?</p>

They go for $49.99 each and are available at the Gear4 page for them here: <a title="http://us.gear4.com/category/_/135/ipad-2-cases/" href="http://us.gear4.com/category/_/135/ipad-2-cases/">http://us.gear4.com/category/_/135/ipad-2-cases/</a></p>
<p>I’m still looking around for a full-protection case with smart cover features; but I’m pretty sure if my daughter had a vote she’d go with one of these, probably the middle one above. </p>

<p><font style="font-weight: normal">Looking for a simpler, ‘greener’ case for your iPad? If so, you might want to take a look at <strong>The Kork</strong>. It’s made from 100% ‘natural leftover cork’ and seems well designed. Here are some of its specs and features:</font></p>
<ul>   </ul>
<ul>
<li><i>Recycled and Recyclable Natural Cork </i></li>
<li><i>Easy access to all Buttons and Inputs </i></li>
<li><i>Ergonomic Natural Shape and Feel </i></li>
<li><i>Angled Audio Output for Front Projected Sound </i></li>
<li><i>Larger Dock Connection Extra Space for Connectors </i></li>
<li><i>Extra Space for Bigger Jack Input </i></li>
<li><i>Angled Mic. Wall for User Directed Sound Caption </i></li>
<li><i>Very Light Weight</i></li>
</ul>
<p>I think the larger cutout for the dock connection port, to accommodate the Camera Connction Kit or other similar adapters, is a nice little touch.</p>
<p>The manufacturers reckon that The Kork doesn’t need a stand as it’s grippy enough to improvise with:</p>
<blockquote><p><font style="font-weight: normal">&quot;With the kork slipped on your iPad, there is really no need for kickstands or other attach-ments. This is because cork has the great natural ability to no-slip grip onto almost any surface you put it on. Stands are also limited position-wise, with the Kork, you have the freedom to prop it up just right, no stands attached.&quot;</font></p>
</blockquote>
<p>If you like simple shell cases, this may be an interesting option – though I think its price of around $67 (€49.95) seems a little steep.</p>
<p>You can see lots more detail and place an order for The Kork here:</p>

<p>This guy arrived at my house a couple days ago. It’s the <strong><a href="http://www.zagg.com/accessories/zaggmate.php">ZAGGmate with Keyboard</a></strong> case + keyboard combo for the iPad, and I’ve just had a chance to start trying it out a little today.</p>
<p>My first impressions are mostly good. The bluetooth keyboard pairs up easily with the iPad, the case is light and good looking, and the keyboard is not too bad to use – though it is quite small and I’m fat-fingering a lot in my early usage of it. </p>
<p>I’ll look to have a review up on this fairly soon.</p>
<p>If you have any specific questions about the ZAGGmate with Keyboard, please throw them into the comments and I’ll do my best to answer them. </p>

<p>The Zaggmate (with keyboard) is the first iPad case + keyboard combo that actually looks good to me. Very good in fact. And as of today it’s available for pre-order – priced at $99.99 with keyboard (or $69.99 without) and with an expected ship date of ‘on or before December 13th’. </p>
<p>All the other case + keyboard combo accessories I’ve seen have looked a bit clumsy and cumbersome for using the iPad when you don’t want or need the keyboard component. This one just looks much better to me in that respect. Oh, and I’ve put my money where my keyboard is on that thought – I just placed my pre-order. </p>
<p>For more details or to get your pre-order going, go to the Zaggmate page here:</p>

<p>That’s the Tod’s iPad Case shown above – handmade in Italy and finished in genuine alligator skin. The most notable thing about this case is its price though: $4,900. Very nearly 10 times as much as the base level 16GB iPad WiFi model. Unbelievable. Here’s the site for it: <a title="http://www.tods.com/" href="http://www.tods.com/">http://www.tods.com/</a>. I was going to try to give a landing page for the case itself, but it’s one of those putrid sites where it takes an age to load, forces some crappy Flash video to load (links to cancel it don’t work) and then offers near zero in terms of responsiveness or navigation once it finally finishes the ‘show’. </p>
<p>This case is the top-priced one in a list of 11 hideously expensive ones for iPad at the Born Rich site, titled ‘<a href="http://www.bornrich.org/entry/the-best-apple-ipad-cases-money-can-buy/">The Best iPad Cases Money Can Buy’</a>. I guess you know you’re in trouble when the Gucci case is the<em> least</em> expensive on the list, at a mere $250. Five of the cases on the list are priced at $1,500 or above.     <br clear="all" />    (...)<br/>Read the rest of <a href="http://ipadinsight.com/ipad-accessories/tods-ipad-case-nearly-ten-times-the-price-of-an-ipad/ ">Tod&rsquo;s iPad Case &ndash; Nearly TEN Times the Price of an iPad</a> (88 words)</p>

<p>Yes folks, if you’ve been anxiously awaiting an iPad case that costs more than even the 64GB iPad 3G, you don’t need to wait much longer. The menswear division of French fashion house Christian Dior plans to bring out a <strong>Dior Homme iPad case</strong> next January, with a price of <strong>$895</strong>. Here’s what’s great about it:</p>
<p>&#8211; There are two material options for it, ‘black tie leather’ and ‘classic coated canvas’. I’m assuming both have blocks of gold hidden within their covers, given the pricetag. </p>
<p>&#8211; It really doesn’t look much different to any number of run-of-mill iPad cases in its promo shots, so there’s not much risk of anyone wanting to steal it because of its amazing looks.</p>
<p>&#8211; Its’ due to come out in mid-January of 2011, just a few weeks before we expect to see the iPad 2 unveiled – which, if its size and layout varies even a little, may render this case useless for the next generation. </p>
<p>&#8211; Did I mention it costs more than any iPad model?</p>
